concealed weapon in Virginia Forests
 

I would like to vote FOR the right to carry concealed weapons in Virgina forests, provided the person is licensed by Virgina or a recipicating State.  I was a State Wildlife Officer for 32 years and never saw the need to prohibit the carrying of self defense type concealed weapons.  Prohibiting them will not save ten game animals in the course of a year.  The states had best start making it easier to enjoy the fields and woods or you will find hunting a dying sport.  Thanks for the chance to comment.
